Presumed false positive on nsisdl.dll

[David Wright]

As of this morning, I'm getting positives on nsisdl.dll,
an extension DLL for the Nullsoft installer. This is the
3rd time MS AntiSpyware has a detected something from
Nullsoft (since I've been running the AntiSpware.) I
believe this is the second time for this particular dll.

It's a tad frustrating that it keeps cropping up. It's
usually fixed in the next update, but can this be made
part of some sort of accepted baseline of files, so it
doesn't keep happening?

Thanks!

And again, fwiw--those links are clearly marked as being for the vendors
only.

For end users, reporting via the .signatures group here is preferred.

I'm not sure how important this is in the broad scheme of things, but once
the product releases, we don't want too much chaff hitting the links that
are meant for vendors and require a quick response from Microsoft.

Very true Bill, will recommend the signatures group next time.
